As someone who does a lot of research before buying anything, I was skeptical about this speaker at first. I expected it to be just another overhyped gadget, but the reality is it's actually pretty solid. The sound is clear and has good bass, though it's not perfect—it can get a bit muddy when you crank it up. I've used it for a couple of months now, mostly for listening to audiobooks and some music while studying, and it's held up well. The waterproof feature has been a lifesaver when I've taken it outside or near water. Battery life is great; I only need to charge it every other day with moderate use. However, I wish it had more features like being able to power other devices, and the lack of that makes it feel a bit basic for the price. Overall, it meets most of my needs, but it's not the absolute best out there. I'd recommend it if you want something reliable and portable, but keep your expectations in check.
- Pros: The sound quality is impressive for its size, with deep bass that really makes music come alive. It's extremely durable and waterproof, which has saved me a few times when I accidentally got it wet. The battery lasts a long time, easily getting through a full day of use without needing a recharge, and I like that I can connect it to other speakers for a bigger sound when I want to.
- Cons: It doesn't have any way to charge my phone or other devices, which is a bummer since my phone battery dies fast. The sound can get a bit distorted at the highest volumes, and it's a bit heavier than I expected for something so portable. Also, it only comes in a few colors, so options are limited if you care about that.
